A bear threat in Gilt futures remains present - for now - and this week’s extension reinforces the bearish theme. The contract has traded through support at 98.11, the Sep 2 low and a bear trigger. The break strengthens the downtrend, signalling scope for a deeper retracement, towards 97.47, a Fibonacci projection. Initial firm resistance has been defined at 99.47, the Oct 1 high and just above the 20-day EMA.
